I have been using the Schill vienna and munich malt (8L) for the past few mos from Northern Brewer.  The profile is very European, easy to work with, and hard for me to distinguish from Weyermann which I used to order.  Solid color and nice toasted maltiness to boot.

As far as I am concerned, Briess is the bottom of the domestic barrel.  I used to use a lot of Schreier 2-Row before the Cargill takeover.  I have only used Rahr 2-Row in one batch thus far, but I am impressed with the results.  I am definitely interested in trying Rahr's other products.

Can anyone give me any input on Schill Malz? Primarily their pilsner, Vienna, munich malts.

In this thread I have gone from Rahr to Canada Malting to Castle to Weyermann to Schill...haha

I use quite a bit of Shills and Weyernmann.
Shills is good. It is a few cents cheaper per lb but it also have little less extract to my experience.

I prefer Weyernmann Bohemian Pilsner and Shills Dark Munich.

Good luck.
